DEADHEAD & GATHER
Snips & Garden Scissors
… and a few secateurs. Is there anything better than pottering about in the garden with a pair of snips or garden scissors, deadheading and tidying in the cool of a summer’s evening? Or perhaps you’re an early morning garden inspector, with dew on your slippers and a cup of tea going cold back in the house? Why not both? It won’t be July forever you know …

Niwaki stocks knives for all budgets and levels of enthusiasm, from the entry-level Niwaki Mainichi range (Santoku, Gyoto, Nakiri and Petty) which marries Japanese steel with Western-style handles, to the hand-finished-in-a-tiny-Sanjo-workshop majesty of the Masashi Kobo Damascus knives.
